Interesting crime drama, right out of the Nordic noir playbook, set in the Outer Hebrides. Compelling plot, good acting, stunning scenery and the absolute novelty of being Gaelic speaking for the most part. This aspect is quite refreshing and indeed intriguing as the setting of the drama feels both familiar and otherworldly. It feels like it could be a set in Norway or Iceland given we have to follow the dialogue via subtitles but then there is a lot of familiarity about the setting. Plus the characters throw in quite a bit of English when speaking to each other. It's not without flaws. For example, it tries to squeeze too much into the four episodes. It might have been better to have given each of the protagonists an episode of their own in which their back stories could have been explored more deeply.
